Responded to the mass shooting in Maine last night, our new Speaker of the House said prayer is appropriate at a time like this. That’s it. That was his response. 1/3

Darn right, Mr. Speaker. So is a ban on assault weapons, universal background checks, banning bump stocks and high-capacity magazines, and more. Using prayer as cover for the political unwillingness to address earthly problems is a mockery of faith. 2/3

Geez same as Bidens statement 😂 but I forgot Bidens was good while this 1 isn't. We all need Joe's prayers 😂

I’m genuinely terrified by this. Israeli settlers are promising a second Nakba in the West Bank, which means slaughtering people door-to-door and forcibly expel the rest. As we see the world remains silent in the face of Gaza’s ongoing genocide, we know we have no protection.

What do you want him to do? Organize a posse?
Replying to @marwilliamson
Just pray. Don’t actually take any steps to ameliorate the problem we’ve had for multiple decades now.
